Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bf = \frac{18}{35} \: by \: - 3 \times \frac{1}{8} \\ \sf = \frac{18}{35} \times \frac{ - (3 \times 8 + 1)}{8} \\ \sf = \frac{18}{35} \times \frac{ - (24 + 1)}{8} \\ \sf = \frac{18}{35} \times \frac{ - 25}{8} \\ \sf = \frac{18 \times - 25}{35 \times 8} \\ \sf = \frac{ - 450}{35 \times 8} \\ \sf = \frac{ - 450}{280} </p><p>$

*Move the negative sign to the left---

$\sf = - \frac{450}{280} \\ \sf = - \frac{45 \cancel0}{28 \cancel0}$

$\boxed{ \bf{ - \frac{45}{28} }}$

Convert to mixed form---

$\boxed{ \bf \red{ - 1\frac{17}{28} }}$

Decimal form---

$\boxed{ \bf \green{ \approx- 1.60✔}}$
